Haplophthalmus australis, Chilton.

Common on Campbell Island. The two species here placed under Haplophthalmus differ in one or two small points from the characters of the genus as given by Sars.
Tylos neozelanicus, Chilton.
Chilton, 1901, p. 120; Budde-Lund, 1906, p. 78.
Budde-Lund has recently reviewed the species of Tylos, but unfortunately is unable to add anything to our knowledge of T. spinulosus, Dana, from Tierra del Fuego, a species which is probably allied to T. neozelanicus.
Scyphax ornatus, Dana.
Chilton, 1901, p. 123.
Deto aucklandiœ (G. M. Thomson).
Scyphax (?) aucklandiœ, Chilton, 1901, p. 126 (in part); Deto magnifica, D. robusta, and D. aucklandiœ, Budde-Lund, 1906, pp. 86, 87; Deto aucklandiœ, Chilton, 1909, p. 666.

Philoscia pubescens (Dana).
Chilton, 1901, p. 136 (in part).
According to Budde-Lund (1904, p. 43), two species were included by me in 1901 under this name—viz., P. pubescens (Dana), and Pseudophiloscia fragilis, Budde-Lund (see below). Philoscia pubescens (Dana) seems to be very near to P. mina, Budde-Lund, and to P. hirsuta, Budde-Lund, both from Cape Town (see Budde-Lund, 1906, p. 89). P. mina has been recorded by Dollfus from the Seychelles. A comparison of specimens from the different localities is much needed.
Philoscia novœ-zealandiœ, Filhol.
Chilton, 1901, p. 138.
I do not know this species.
Pseudophiloscia fragilis, Budde-Lund.
Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 43, pl. vi, figs. 5, 6.
Budde-Lund includes in this species the specimens from Howick, Auckland, which I had referred to Philoscia pubescens (Dana). He places Pseudophiloscia under the Spherilloninœ, and Philoscia, Latr., under the Oniscinœ.
Cubaris spinosus (Dana).
Armadillo spinosus, Chilton, 1901, p. 150; Spherillo spinosus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 54.
I have not seen this species.
Cubaris hamiltoni (Chilton).
Armadillo hamiltoni, Chilton, 1901, p. 148; Spherillo hamiltoni, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 54.
Cubaris macmahoni (Chilton).
Armadillo macmahoni, Chilton, 1901, p. 149; Spherillo macmahoni, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 56.
The type specimens were from Marlborough. Mr. W. W. Smith has since sent me specimens from New Plymouth.
Cubaris squamatus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo squamatus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 61.
“One female specimen from Lyttelton, near Christchurch (Mus. Hamburg).”
Cubaris bipunctatus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo bipunctatus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 62.
“One male specimen from Lyttelton (Mus. Hamburg).”
Cubaris ambitiosus (Budde-Lund).
Armadillo ambitiosus, Chilton, 1901, p. 144; Spherillo ambitiosus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p.63.
This species is common all over the North Island, and in the South Island extends down the west coast as far as Daggs Sound.
Cubaris rufomarginatus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo rufomarginatus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 64, pl. vii, figs. –36.
“One female specimen was taken at Taranga [? Tauranga] by Dr. Thilenius (Mus. Berlin).”
Cubaris marginatus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo marginatus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 65.
“One female specimen taken from Auckland (Mus. Kjobenhavn).”
![Thumbnail: [Volume 42, 1909 page 290]](/journals/rsnz/images/rsnz_42/thumbnails/rsnz_42_00_0339_0290_ac_02.gif)
Cubaris rugulosus, Miers.
Armadillo rugulosus, Chilton, 1901, p. 147; Spherillo rugulosus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 65.
Occurs on the Auckland and Campbell Islands, as well as on the mainland of New Zealand.
Cubaris tarangensis, (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo tarangensis, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 67, pl. viii, fig. 9.
“At Taranga [? Tauranga] (Dr. Thilenius, in Mus. Berlin), at Lyttelton (Mr. Suter, in Mus. Hamburg).”
Cubaris monolinus (Dana).
Armadillo monolinus, Chilton, 1901, p. 148; Spherillo aucklandicus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 69.
Budde-Lund thinks this species is allied to C. tarangensis.
Cubaris speciosus (Dana).
Armadillo speciosus, Dana, 1853, p. 718, pl. 47, fig. 2, a-d (not Chilton, 1901, p. 146).
This species has not been re-identified with certainty.
Cubaris canaliculatus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo canaliculatus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 74.
“Chatham Islands (Prof. Schauinsland, in Mus. Bremen).”
Cubaris chathamensis (Budde-Lund).
Armadillo speciosus, Chilton, 1901, p. 146; Spherillo speciosus, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 75.
Budde-Lund establishes this species for the specimens from Chatham Islands that I had with hesitation referred to Armadillo speciosus, Dana. It appears to be a common species in the Chatham Islands, and is probably identical with the preceding species.
Cubaris setaceus (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo setaceus, Budde-Lund.
“Auckland, one specimen (Dr. B. Friedländer, in Mus. Berlin).”
Cubaris brevis (Budde-Lund).
Spherillo brevis, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 93.
“Auckland (Mus. Dresden).”
With regard to the two species last mentioned, Budde-Lund says, “I have seen only one specimen of each of the two last species, many years ago, and the condition of them was not good, I therefore could not pay regard to the more essential characters, and their place here is not sure.”
Cubaris danœ (Heller).
Armadillo danœ, Chilton, 1901, p. 145; Spherillo danœ, Budde-Lund, 1904, p. 94.
I have specimens from New Plymouth and from Kapiti Island in addition to the localities previously given.
